Recession? What recession?

Well, feeling the need to do my part to keep the economy afloat, a dropped a few dollars on a new bike. I'm not getting rid of the old one mind you, just adding to my collection. I love my old bike and I'm never getting rid of it and I will still ride it for all things triathlon related. But the new bike is a road bike - to take with me the next time I go on a European cycling trip....and I suppose for biking to work until then.
